Story About TeenBusiness.com From Business News Daily: "According to TeenBusiness.com, teenagers around the world are starting and running successful and inspiring businesses. The media has covered young people running high-tech and Web startups like Australian teen Nick D'Aloisio, who sold his news summary app, Summly, to Yahoo for $30 million last year. However, many young adults are changing what it means to be a teen entrepreneur by starting low-tech, green and science-based enterprises with goals that go beyond making money – they want to change lives, too".> Continue Reading at BusinessNewsDaily.

The following are reviews and articles associated with the books.

Barron's

Barron's chose Teenvestor: The Practical Investment Guide for Teens and their Parents as one of the top investment books in the year it was publishes. Please find below some of the other publicity we've received about our work.

From Money Magazine"Teenvestor ® was written especially for teenagers, although it's actually a good basic resource for any age....I like this latest book because it encourages parents to come along for the ride and learn about investing, too. It has good, solid (not dumbed down) explanations of investment basics, how to read income statement, understand markets, and so on..."-- Jean Chatzky, Editor-At-Large, Money Magazine

From Morningstar, The Mutual Fund Authority"....In many ways, Teenvestor ® bridges the gap between the other two teen-investing books. More in-depth and sophisticated than 'I Want to Be Rich!', it doesn’t assume its readers have had prior exposure to investing or easy access to money the way Street Wise does...."-- Amy Granzin, Senior Editorial Analyst

From Investor's Business Daily "The adage about giving a man a fish vs. teaching him to catch his own also applies to your teenagers. Give them money and they'll come back for more. But give them the basics of investing and they'll have the tools to make money on their own. "If you can start motivating interest in the stock market at a young age, you can develop good saving habits in your teenager," said Emmanuel Modu, author of Teenvestor ® : The Practical Investment Guide for Teens and Their Parents".-- Gary Stern, Investor's Business Daily

From Rush Limbaugh"...opportunity still exists in abundance. Emmanuel Modu is a young MBA from Wharton. He has written a book called The Lemonade Stand: A Guide To Encouraging The Entrepreneur In Your Child. He tells inspiring stories about how kids as young as ten set up their own small businesses and made something of themselves. Some sixteen-year-olds are supporting their parents on their earnings. It's easy to say that these are a few exceptional kids, but how many kids have we encouraged to take that step?"--Rush Limbaugh, Nationally Syndicated Talk Show Host and Best-Selling Author

From School Library Journal"Gr 10 Up-This comprehensive tutorial opens with a discussion of the importance of learning how to manage and invest money and offers both advice and strategies. The authors explain the basics of investing, and then describe how to read and interpret balance sheets and income statements, how to understand the stock market, and how to evaluate and choose stocks for the long-term strategies they recommend. They also cover mutual funds, explain the various ways to purchase stocks, and describe income-tax implications for this audience. Throughout, they encourage "Teenvestors" to visit their Web site for further information and updates. The information is accurate, objective, and helpful. A few tables accompany the text. While this how-to book doesn't really compare to extant works, its strong message that readers need to take charge of their own financial futures and the practical advice it offers to help them do so will ensure an audience for it".

Junior Achievement"The Lemonade Stand should be a part of every family's library. It is an inspirational guide for anyone, not just young people, who wants to learn how to start and develop a business."--James B. Hayes, President and CEO of Junior Achievement Inc. and Former Publisher of Fortune Magazine

From Buy and Hold, Inc. "Teenvestor ® is presented in a well-organized, easy-to-understand format that emphasizes the benefits of the tried-and-true strategy of starting early and investing regularly in good companies to build wealth over time. Teenvestor ® should be required reading for all high school students and their parents."--Peter E. Breen, CEO, BUYand Hold, Inc.

From FinancialFinesse.com "Teenvestor ® by Emmanuel Modu and Andrea Walker was written to help the ever-expanding universe of teens who think playing the market is the next logical step when they're too old for Pokemon cards. ...Both the book and the website are clearly laid out and offer good information in an accessible, and unlike many books aimed toward the younger market, unpatronizing manner...Most teens are not old enough to invest through a regular investment account, so there's a chapter going through the options open to parents of teens, such as custodial account and IRAs..."--Ms. Spent (Aka Deborah Knuckey), Financial Expert, and Writer. Her work can be seen in popular financial investment sites such as www.msspent.com , www.financialfinesse.com , and www.quote.com, etc.

From The Independent Tribune"Psst. Find this web site on the internet and bookmark it. TEENVESTOR.COM. Just don't let anyone know you're using it. It's supposed to be for kids. If you want to learn about investing, this is the place to go. It's for teens, but if you won't tell, we won't either. This is good stuff".-- Marshall Smith, Personal Finance Columnist
